Configuring Failure with CMake, Can't Download Files

I have the latest version of CMake, no networking restrictions (at the moment), and I have no idea where to place the downloaded files. Thanks for the help.

Configuring Failure with CMake, Can't Download Files

Hi there,

I'm having trouble configuring OpenCV with CMake, it seems to be fail the necessary downloads for the extra modules. Explicit instructions on manual downloading of these missing files (and where to put them) would be absolutely wonderful.

The error is given as follows:

CMake Error at C:/Users/me/Desktop/Editors/Elite Lazy/opencv/sources/cmake/OpenCVUtils.cmake:1043 (file):

MisterJ,

EDIT: I've attempted to download the missing files manually, and have succeeded, but am unsure where to put them, perhaps in the build folder? Also I've removed all traffic restrictions so I don't think it's that.
